Questions I ask myself -

In approach to every project:

What is the problem?

Design must have a purpose. Before getting creative, it is important for me to work with the client to understand their business, identify their users, and implement a design strategy. My job is to solve existing problems, not create new ones.

How can I make it look beautiful?

Clear content, simple navigation, and consistency in design leads to a positive user experience. Just because something looks good doesn't mean it is useful. I keep in mind that everything I do affects the user, it is my duty to fulfill their needs.

What can I learn from it?

Every experience is invaluable, I get satisfaction from a job that successfully brands the client's product while maintaining usability and accessibility. It is important to me to move forward in my career and keep myself competitive.
